Hmm it looks like your website ate my first comment (it was extremely long) so I guess I’ll just sum it up what I submitted and say, I’m thoroughly enjoying your blog. I too am an aspiring blog writer but I’m still new to everything. Do you have any tips and hints for inexperienced blog writers? I’d certainly appreciate it.

I have no idea where all the pessimism is coming from in regards to pregnancy. Some people seem to forget the bright side of things (such as having a wonderful baby). You’re right. Just sock em in the face and be done with it. *laughs*

This is the funniest one so far! I love the second to last paragraph, man you can write! You sure keep me laughing when I feel like crap from pregnancy!

You’re going to be a *great* mom.

I always hated those horror stories too. Don’t worry about it. Just enjoy the ride.

T,
It sounds to me like your facebook “friend” is jealous. If you do morph into a bleary-eyed, pock-marked, sad sack of blah blah blah, you will simply make that look hot. I wish you the best and I bet Kim at her best is still -20 compared to your worst.

I should have responded on the subject of listening to other people. During both my pregnancies my husband and I worked for the same Company and we would be together at lunch. So many people say the worst stuff to us — ooh enjoy your time now — its over for you, etc etc etc. My husband would go back at them and I just didn’t respond. Peole would tell us how horrible their kids were and ooh just wait your turn. My husband would say — if you choose to raise them that way — then thats what you get. We have 2 awesome boys. One quieter and the other crazy wild. But .. they are the light of our lives and we wouldn’t change anything. Raise your child the way YOU want to and tell others to but out (listen to the good advice, toss the other).

Teresa, I have followed you the past few years and love your humor. Number one rule in being a good mother — MUST HAVE sense of humor! I have 2 boys and I love it. I never cared either way what sex my children would be — but now I think what would I do with a girl!! A few light moments — you will find your hair ribbons, clips, your nail files, your jewelry, anything you think boys wouldn’t want — they use them to make play guns, or cars, or use your jewelry pretending their pirates and they found gold! My husband suffers from Bipolar Depression, came on strong when he hit 40. His mother also suffers from it, deeply. Not that she wasn’t a good mother — but hit and miss — and some horrid memories. He too worried about parenting because of these issues and he is the BEST daddy any child could ask for. He notices when he is going the wrong direction and straightens it out. Our oldest son 8.5 and he shows signs.. and all I can say is I am thankful that his father is there to help him with any issues that come up. Talk to your baby from day one, not baby talk, real words, the bigger and more exciting the better! Their sponges, they feed off of you — mood, words, and emotions. YOU ARE GOING TO BE A GREAT Mother! You have already begun by worrying yourself to death — that’s being a mom for the rest of your life. Every day you will worry, and laugh and laugh and laugh! I pray you have several babies, its fun. Please remember when you think the baby work is to hard.. I believe that’s the easy part!! Explaining what a condom is to my 8 year old son last night (scene from a movie).. that moment I wished he was that baby again!! You’ve done the hard part — getting pregnant and staying healthy .. enjoy the rest of it. Your husband too — he already sounds patient and kind .. taking great care of you. Yours truly — Big fan .. love hearing you back with Adam (another great parent — and he had horrible parents)!

i just gotta say that i’m very happy for you and your husband. i may not know you from other than the show but you come across as a very intelligent woman with a great scene of self and humor.I never would have thought that I would enjoy reading about pregnancy, but here i am still reading. you’ve got an easy reading and smart style of writing.

I believe you are going to be a wonder mother.

question: are you going to save these pages in case your son wants to read then when he get older?

thank you for sharing.

Daydreaming amount punching people in the face, along with crying alone in the bathroom at work, were two things i did regularly during my pregnancy. I regularly got “You’ll never sleep again”, “You’ll never have sex again” , ” Wow, are you sure you don’t have twins in there? You’re HUGE!”. The only “advice” i have for you and your husband is to make sure everyone involved is healthy and happy. Being a mom is a lot of fun. I too had doubts about my maternal abilities ( my own mother told me she was worried that i wasn’t maternal enough”). You can see some of my own child exploitation at the website above. Again, I wish you health and happiness.
